For me, the first satisfying Hong Kong film of this year, which breathed some fresh original air into the genre in the form of a gangster film, with Donnie Yen playing a drug lord, and doing it perfectly. Andy Lau as a policeman and Donnie's friend is also a treat. There could have been more action, Donnie Yen really only shows off three times, which is due to the director's twist in the first half, which is rather a detriment, but as long as he stuck to realistic basics there's no reason to blame him. I also enjoyed the bloody shootouts in the second half. I liked the plot, I wasn't bored, the visuals are traditionally solid and the action is varied. Colombia had Escobar, Hong Kong had HO. Loved it. 75%
